Hausmann Quartet: Haydn Voyages - Impressions
1492 N. Harbor Drive, San Diego, 92101
The eighth season of Haydn Voyages: Music at the Maritime, a quarterly concert series, will be performed aboard one of the Museum’s historic world-class vessels, the 1898 steam ferryboat Berkeley that operated for 60 years on San Francisco Bay. Ned Rorem would have been 100 this fall, and his fourth quartet is based on impressions from a collection of Picasso’s paintings (“sort of,” in the composer’s words). How do other art forms influence and inform each other? How can our dialogue with masterpieces of the past be shared in our performances today? This collection of works on its own can’t possibly answer these questions, but may pose some of its own.
